De Zuiderhavendijk in Enkhuizen
De Zuiderhavendijk in Enkhuizen c1868 by Dutch Painter Cornelis Springer (1817 – 1891); a Dutch 19th Century Cityscape painter.
This is a town view landscape painting by a canal in de Zuiderhavendijk, which is a street and harbor in the Dutch town of Enkhuizen.
In this scene we can see the people of the town going about their daily routine on a bright sunny day, as one man feeds his horse that is tethered to a cart (with a dog sitting inside) some hay, as a couple passes by him.
With more people by the buildings on the right engaging in activity, that includes preparing food from vegetables and fruits; and on the bridge and opposite bank we can see even more people working and interacting with each other.
We also see a man in his boat, a black and a white chicken near the bank, a mother and sun walking pass a tree, speaking to each other, while another boy crosses the road.
